Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Restructure the persistent memory to have a "scratch" area
Instead of hard coding the KASLR offset in the persistent memory by
the ring buffer, push that work up to the callers of the persistent
memory as they are the ones that need this information. The offsets
and such is not important to the ring buffer logic and it should not
be part of that.
A scratch pad is now created when the caller allocates a ring buffer
from persistent memory by stating how much memory it needs to save.
- Allow where modules are loaded to be saved in the new scratch pad
Save the addresses of modules when they are loaded into the
persistent memory scratch pad.
- A new module_for_each_mod() helper function was created
With the acknowledgement of the module maintainers a new module
helper function was created to iterate over all the currently loaded
modules. This has a callback to be called for each module. This is
needed for when tracing is started in the persistent buffer and the
currently loaded modules need to be saved in the scratch area.
- Expose the last boot information where the kernel and modules were
loaded
The last_boot_info file is updated to print out the addresses of
where the kernel "_text" location was loaded from a previous boot, as
well as where the modules are loaded. If the buffer is recording the
current boot, it only prints "# Current" so that it does not expose
the KASLR offset of the currently running kernel.
- Allow the persistent ring buffer to be released (freed)
To have this in production environments, where the kernel command
line can not be changed easily, the ring buffer needs to be freed
when it is not going to be used. The memory for the buffer will
always be allocated at boot up, but if the system isn't going to
enable tracing, the memory needs to be freed. Allow it to be freed
and added back to the kernel memory pool.
- Allow stack traces to print the function names in the persistent
buffer
Now that the modules are saved in the persistent ring buffer, if the
same modules are loaded, the printing of the function names will
examine the saved modules. If the module is found in the scratch area
and is also loaded, then it will do the offset shift and use kallsyms
to display the function name. If the address is not found, it simply
displays the address from the previous boot in hex.

The tracing system needs a way to save all the currently loaded modules
and their addresses into persistent memory so that it can evaluate the
addresses on a reboot from a crash. When the persistent memory trace
starts, it will load the module addresses and names into the persistent
memory. To do so, it will call the module_for_each_mod() function and pass
it a function and data structure to get called on each loaded module. Then
it can record the memory.
This only implements that function.

The size parameter is optional and strscpy() automatically determines
the length of the destination buffer using sizeof() if the argument is
omitted. This makes the explicit sizeof() unnecessary. Remove it to

strncpy() is deprecated for NUL-terminated destination buffers; use
strscpy() instead. The destination buffer ownername is only used with
"%s" format strings and must therefore be NUL-terminated, but not NUL-
padded.

search_module_extables() returns an exception_table_entry belonging to a
module. The lookup via __module_address() can be performed with RCU
protection.
The returned exception_table_entry remains valid because the passed
address usually belongs to a module that is currently executed. So the
module can not be removed because "something else" holds a reference to
it, ensuring that it can not be removed.
Exceptions here are:
- kprobe, acquires a reference on the module beforehand
- MCE, invokes the function from within a timer and the RCU lifetime
guarantees (of the timer) are sufficient.
Therefore it is safe to return the exception_table_entry outside the RCU
section which provided the module.
Use RCU for the lookup in search_module_extables() and update the
comment.

add_kallsyms() assigns the RCU pointer module::kallsyms and setups the
structures behind it which point to init-data. The module was not
published yet, nothing can see the kallsyms pointer and the data behind
it. Also module's init function was not yet invoked.
There is no need to use rcu_dereference() here, it is just to keep
checkers quiet. The whole RCU read section is also not needed.
Use a local kallsyms pointer and setup the data structures. Assign that
pointer to the data structure at the end via rcu_assign_pointer().

The RCU usage in module was introduced in commit d72b37513cdfb ("Remove
stop_machine during module load v2") and it claimed not to be RCU but
similar. Then there was another improvement in commit e91defa26c527
("module: don't use stop_machine on module load"). It become a mix of
RCU and RCU-sched and was eventually fixed 0be964be0d450 ("module:
Sanitize RCU usage and locking"). Later RCU & RCU-sched was merged in
commit cb2f55369d3a9 ("modules: Replace synchronize_sched() and
call_rcu_sched()") so that was aligned.
Looking at it today, there is still leftovers. The preempt_disable() was
used instead rcu_read_lock_sched(). The RCU & RCU-sched merge was not
complete as there is still rcu_dereference_sched() for module::kallsyms.
The RCU-list modules and unloaded_tainted_modules are always accessed
under RCU protection or the module_mutex. The modules list iteration can
always happen safely because the module will not disappear.
Once the module is removed (free_module()) then after removing the
module from the list, there is a synchronize_rcu() which waits until
every RCU reader left the section. That means iterating over the list
within a RCU-read section is enough, there is no need to disable
preemption. module::kallsyms is first assigned in add_kallsyms() before
the module is added to the list. At this point, it points to init data.
This pointer is later updated and before the init code is removed there
is also synchronize_rcu() in do_free_init(). That means A RCU read lock
is enough for protection and rcu_dereference() can be safely used.
Convert module code and its users step by step. Update comments and
convert print_modules() to use RCU.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core and debugfs updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at
least one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is
working on tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone
else's linux-next use), it does not seem like a big issue at the
moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core rust bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o
functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing
things in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon""

Switch away from using sha1 for module signing by default and use the
more modern sha512 instead, which is what among others Arch, Fedora,
RHEL, and Ubuntu are currently using for their kernels.
Sha1 has not been considered secure against well-funded opponents since
2005[1]; since 2011 the NIST and other organizations furthermore
recommended its replacement[2]. This is why OpenSSL on RHEL9, Fedora
Linux 41+[3], and likely some other current and future distributions
reject the creation of sha1 signatures, which leads to a build error of
allmodconfig configurations:
80A20474797F0000:error:03000098:digital envelope routines:do_sigver_init:invalid digest:crypto/evp/m_sigver.c:342:

This change makes allmodconfig work again and sets a default that is
more appropriate for current and future users, too.

module_enable_rodata_ro() is called twice, once before module init
to set rodata sections readonly and once after module init to set
rodata_after_init section readonly.
The second time, only the rodata_after_init section needs to be
set to read-only, no need to re-apply it to already set rodata.
Split module_enable_rodata_ro() in two.

A kobject is meant to manage the lifecycle of some resource.
However the module sysfs code only creates a kobject to get a
"notes" subdirectory in sysfs.
This can be achieved easier and cheaper by using a sysfs group.
Switch the notes attribute code to such a group, similar to how the
section allocation in the same file already works.

Adds a new format for MODVERSIONS which stores each field in a separate
ELF section. This initially adds support for variable length names, but
could later be used to add additional fields to MODVERSIONS in a
backwards compatible way if needed. Any new fields will be ignored by
old user tooling, unlike the current format where user tooling cannot
tolerate adjustments to the format (for example making the name field
longer).
Since PPC munges its version records to strip leading dots, we reproduce
the munging for the new format. Other architectures do not appear to
have architecture-specific usage of this information.

Commit 71810db27c1c ("modversions: treat symbol CRCs as 32 bit
quantities") changed the CRC fields to s32 because the __kcrctab and
__kcrctab_gpl sections contained relative references to the actual
CRC values stored in the .rodata section when CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS=y.
Commit 7b4537199a4a ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link, removing
CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") removed this complexity. Now, the __kcrctab
and __kcrctab_gpl sections directly contain the CRC values in all cases.
The genksyms tool outputs unsigned 32-bit CRC values, so u32 is preferred
over s32.
No functional changes are intended.
Regardless of this change, the CRC value is assigned to the u32 variable
'crcval' before the comparison, as seen in kernel/module/version.c:
crcval = *crc;
It was previously mandatory (but now optional) in order to avoid sign
extension because the following line previously compared 'unsigned long'
and 's32':
if (versions[i].crc == crcval)
return 1;
versions[i].crc is still 'unsigned long' for backward compatibility.

going in through Andrew Morton's tree due to some other code
dependencies. That's really the biggest highlight for Linux kernel
modules in this release. With it we share huge pages for modules,
starting off with x86. Expect to see that soon through Andrew!
- Helge Deller addressed some lingering low hanging fruit alignment
enhancements by. It is worth pointing out that from his old patch
series I dropped his vmlinux.lds.h change at Masahiro's request as he
would prefer this to be specified in asm code [0].

- Matthew Maurer and Sami Tolvanen have been tag teaming to help get us
closer to a modversions for Rust. In this cycle we take in quite a
lot of the refactoring for ELF validation. I expect modversions for
Rust will be merged by v6.14 as that code is mostly ready now.
- Adds a new modules selftests: kallsyms which helps us tests
find_symbol() and the limits of kallsyms on Linux today.
- We have a realtime mailing list to kernel-ci testing for modules now
which relies and combines patchwork, kpd and kdevops:

When a module gets unloaded there is a possibility that some of the
allocations it made are still used and therefore the allocation tags
corresponding to these allocations are still referenced. As such, the
memory for these tags can't be freed. This is currently handled as an
abnormal situation and module's data section is not being unloaded. To
handle this situation without keeping module's data in memory, allow
codetags with longer lifespan than the module to be loaded into their own
separate memory. The in-use memory areas and gaps after module unloading
in this separate memory are tracked using maple trees. Allocation tags
arrange their separate memory so that it is virtually contiguous and that
will allow simple allocation tag indexing later on in this patchset. The
size of this virtually contiguous memory is set to store up to 100000
allocation tags.

In order to support ROX allocations for module text, it is necessary to
handle modifications to the code, such as relocations and alternatives
patching, without write access to that memory.
One option is to use text patching, but this would make module loading
extremely slow and will expose executable code that is not finally formed.
A better way is to have memory allocated with ROX permissions contain
invalid instructions and keep a writable, but not executable copy of the
module text. The relocations and alternative patches would be done on the
writable copy using the addresses of the ROX memory. Once the module is
completely ready, the updated text will be copied to ROX memory using text
patching in one go and the writable copy will be freed.
Add support for that to module initialization code and provide necessary
interfaces in execmem.

all failure exits prior to fdget() leave the scope, all matching fdput()
are immediately followed by leaving the scope.

With few exceptions emptiness checks are done as fd_file(...) in boolean
context (usually something like if (!fd_file(f))...); those will be
taken care of later.
However, there's a couple of places where we do those checks as
'store fd_file(...) into a variable, then check if this variable is
NULL' and those are harder to spot.
Get rid of those now.
use fd_empty() instead of extracting file and then checking it for NULL.

Using commas to declare struct members makes adding new members to this
struct not as nice with patch management.
